Draco Malfoy: Character Study, Part 4

Draco Malfoy: Character Study, Part 3

OH NO YOU DON’T, LADDIE! It’s time for Draco’s arc in the fourth book! From his short but glorious experience as a ferret to his love of Blast-Ended Skrewts, Draco provides some comic relief in this book, but his storyline also begins to take a darker turn as we head into the latter half of the series.

Alice and Martha discuss everyone’s favorite supermom, Molly Weasley, and her arc in the last four books.

Hermione Granger: Character Study, Part 6

Alice and Martha round out their conversation about Hermione, discussing her arc in the seventh book. With the infamous beaded bag and her quick thinking in numerous sticky situations, we can all agree that Hermione is largely responsible for getting Harry out of this book alive. After all, she’s highly logical, which allows her to look past extraneous details, to see clearly that which others overlook!

Alice and Martha are back to continue their discussion of Hermione, covering her arc in the fifth book.
